re: Cody Glenn to start Thursday per Alan Dunn(Posted by Broski on 5/6/13 at 7:59 pm to TigersforEver)

We started our ace on Fridays all season long, and only lost one series (the one win of which was the first game.)

No, starting Glenn on Thursday from here on out does two things, Keeps Nola and Eades on normal schedule and it puts Glenn on a normal schedule for the first game of the regional when we play the SWAC champ.

Broski is correct, this sets up perfectly for us. Glenn can get accustomed to starting the opening game of the series. Works out well for Regionals, although you will probably see it reversed for supers.

The move is risky in potentially losing a pair of series openers since the aces for TAMU and OM are excellent but it sets up extreme advantages for LSU to win at least 2 of 3. Let's face it...2 of 3 in each series makes the SEC West and a national seed total locks.

Last series of the year is always thursday - saturday, which accounts for OM.

ESPNU also picks one SEC Series each week to highlight on the thursday game, and adjusts that series to thursday-saturday as well, which is what's happening for Fla and aTm. (OM is also going to be on ESPNU on Thursday, but would have been on thursday regardless)
